Sign position statement on US ban on syringe exchange funding
31 January 2012
On December 23, 2011, the U.S. Congress reinstated the federal ban on the use of federal funds to support needle and syringe exchange programs (NSPs) both domestically and internationally.
In response to the federal ban, advocates have drafted a Syringe Exchange Position Statement condemning the ban, while emphasizing the efficacy and effectiveness of these programs.
Thus far, several activists and academics have signed the statement to formally express their opposition.
